People on popular Pewaukee road say speed limits are inconsistent and dangerous

People who live on a major Pewaukee road say the inconsistent speeds right off the highway are making it dangerous.

“Isn’t this traffic crazy?” asked Debby Fischer who was standing next to Meadowbrook Road.

Debby and Tom Fischer have lived next to Meadowbrook Road for nearly 30 years. When you first exit I-94 the speed limit drops to 35 miles per hour and then jumps to 45 miles per hour for less than a mile. That small section is where they say people speed.

“It is just too fast,” said Debby Fischer.

“People have to navigate through traffic to get out. If they would make a consistent speed limit along this road then it could make it a little bit easier for residents along this road to navigate,” said Tom Fischer.

They came to our Let’s Talk Waukesha community event in April worried about inconsistent speed on a road that they say has become residential. A month later, there was a deadly crash on Meadowbrook Road.
